West Mountain

I've skied there.... but inwas there recently for the scenic lift to the top of the mountain and to check out their high adventure ropes course at the top of the mountain..... it was awesome and I'd highly recommend.

Decent ski hill for beginners and families. The terrain is primarily short greens and a couple blues. For others, it leaves a bit to be desired and fell short in a couple areas.

The cafeteria was the worst ski lodge experience I’ve had in a long time (by far). Spent $6 for a soggy, cold slice of pizza which tasted days old. The woman at the register (manager/owner?) ignored the line of customers and went on a very extreme rant to another worker about how bad of a job the employees were doing, along with other business and personal matters. She was extremely unprofessional and really created a hostile atmosphere - I feel bad for the employees that work for/with her. The entire line of customers were visibly uncomfortable. Lift, bar, and ticket staff were very friendly. The guys at the Apex Chair had especially great attitudes!

Snow guns were not running even though the majority of the blue trails were closed for lack of snow and the temps were perfect for snowmaking. Grooming wasn’t bad but could be improved - there were some dangerous contours on some of the trails that could have been smoothed out with more regular grooming. Not a huge deal, but certainly unusual for beginner terrain.

I’m a big supporter of independent resorts and an indie passholder. Compared to other independent resorts, West Mountain fell short on terrain selection, snowmaking, and their cafeteria. I would visit again to see if its the norm, but some aspects of the resort seemed mismanaged.

Awesome weekend first time outdoor snowboarding. The kids did great and looking forward to coming back. Even when we finished I enjoyed watching the other people hit the jumps. Definitely made for good post to my IG @docnitty23

Went tubing here for my son's friend's birthday party and it was an absolute blast, even for the adults. They have two separate hills. One smaller and one bigger. Both are really fun! The smaller hill is great for first timers, those who might be a little more reluctant and younger kids. The bigger hill is great for all ages but goes very fast! They also have a competitive downhill skill slope and a regular ski/snowboard slope. Can't wait to go back! Completely recommend!

Nice small mountain located less than an hour north of Albany right off the highway. Getting lift tickets was easy bought online and then got physical ticket/card at kiosk onsite. Lifts are very fast and the slopes are well maintained. Would definitely recommend going here.

Great family outing! We did the snow tubing. There's a people mover to get you up to the top of the hill and it wasnt too bad of a line so we got four- five trips in within our booked time. Snack prices we're outrageous as expected, but the outing was a very pleasant experience overall.

We went to the aerial treetop adventure course here on a group trip. We had never heard of it before the trip. It was AWESOME. It's like Adirondack Extreme, but much closer to home. We had a fantastic time here and look forward to going back again! The staff was very friendly and helpful and the lift ride to the top of the mountain was a beautiful bonus! This is highly recommended for a fantastic, fun filled day outside!!
